How to make my daughter's hair grow faster?

That is also my problem with my baby's hair. I've tried putting aloe vera extract on her scalp although it helps her grow some hair but still its thin and growing slow. I also got an advice to put a virgin coconut oil on her scalp but I haven't tried it. Another is they told me to use a shampoo that horses used. LOL I wouldn;t like to try this some says its effective.

My daughter had/has the same problem. She is now 8 years old, her hair has not grown hardly at all in the last 6 years. A couple of people including my Dermatologist suggested that she have her iron checked. He said that if she is anemic, that the hair will grow, but will continue to break, which seems like it is not growing at all. I had her tested, she was mildly anemic and we fixed that. I read a medical article that your body needs Silicon, so a few months back I went to the herb store, talked to them and got some Silica. It is actually working some. I talked to my doctor, and the dosage for her (8 yr. 52 lbs) is 1 capsule 3 times a day. The only problem is I can't really do it 3 times a day since she is in school. So I definitely do the mornings, and try to remember the evenings. I am going to the doctor again tomorrow, there has to be a medical reason. My sister who is a Nurse Pract. suggested seeing a Pediatric Endocrinologist. I need a referral from my doctor to get in though. I guess that they run a series of tests to see if there are any medical conditions.

I don't know if there is anything that would work. I would love to know of something to make hair longer and thicker, I would use it on myself. If you find anything, please share!

Hi, If you get good quality coconut oil, then heat it slightly and massage it on the head. Make sure that the oil touches the scalp. Do this oil massage atleast every alternate day. On other days just apply oil on her head. But at the same time take little oil both for oil massage and daily application. Other wise the face will get more oily look. If you get curry leaves in your area, grind them into a fine paste and apply it on her hair and leave it for a few mins and wash it thoroughly, you could do this once in a week. The curry leaves can also be eaten raw. Wash it and ask her to eat a few leaves raw. This will also help a lot.

always shower and cut a bit of hair´i mean always cut the toty end only a bit. her and it will grow fast just like my daughters hair.

i heard massaging cayenne pepper into the scalp will stimulate the hair growth greatly..

My baby boy has less hair. He is 4 months old. I Have tried the coconut oil stuff and his hair has not grown thick. I would shave his head once to see uniform and thick hair growth.

id say stimulate her scalp...just rub and scratch her scalp...that stimulates the follicals to grow

I believe if your daughter wash her hair everyday.It will effect to her hair and make her hair grow faster.Another rule if she eat the seaweeds.They will help her hair grow fast too.

I was just curious if your daughters hair has gotten any better since you posted. My daughter is 4 and has VERY thin hair and wont grow past the base of her neck. She has been tested and everything comes back normal. Her doctor asures me that it will grown in eventually. I just want it to be normal now not later.

Well this discussion is three years old, your daughter must have grown up to a cute girl with lot of hair on her head, tell me how she looks now.. Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers. Professor
